答：《荷马史诗》，首先,规模宏大,构思精巧是史诗结构的一大特色.两部史诗都以空前宏伟的规模全面展现了处于过渡期的古希腊社会政治,经济,文化,军事等各方面的情况,前后共涉及了二十年间发生的历史事件。其次,史诗用自然质朴的口语写成,使用了大量口头艺术的表现技巧,如夸张,烘托,比喻,固定修饰语和套语等.这些艺术手法的使用,是与其关照全局,突出重点的结构特征分不开的。三,诗歌本身独特的韵律和源于神话传说的丰富的想象极大地增强了作品的感染力.史诗采用六音步长短短格的诗体,不押韵尾,使全诗节奏鲜明又灵活多变。

（3）法国大革命简介：法国特定历史时期，是1789年在法国爆发的革命，统治法国多个世纪的君主制在三年内土崩瓦解。法国在这段时期经历着一个史诗式的转变：过往的贵族和宗教特权不断受到自由主义政治组织及上街抗议的民众的冲击，旧的观念逐渐被全新的天赋人权、三权分立等的民主思想所取代。对法国大革命结束的时间，世界史学界看法众多，难成共识。在中国，以热月政变作为大革命结束标志比较普遍，人民教育出版社出版的教材和教参也采用了此观点。
